Ever open Visual Basic and make a project, you know what you want to make, but don't know a name for it? So you get stuck and you just can't start it until you have a good name for it?

I'm curious. Hopefully, I'm not the only one who has this problem.

Did you delete your last thread?

And yes, I do have problems making names - they usually end up with fairly utilitarian descriptions :(

PS: Try (this is a poor name, but a start) MattChat...my creative skills are severely lacking here.

Never miss out on the marketing potential of a product name.

We generally just use a working title to begin with, and throw around product names in the documentation phase. Our latest product started life as DocumentThingy, has morphed to ClearVision, and will go through a number of different names before we are finished. Really upsets the sales guy, who has to keep updating his records. hehehehehehehehehehe

I once had an awesome name about a year ago (don't remember now) but when i was halfway through, and about 2 months into it, someone made software with that name!!!!!!!!! IT REALLY PISSED ME OFF! Just use words no one knows, ms word thesarus helps for making creative names out of really bad ones.
